The site has released a ranking of the healthiest housing markets in the U.S., including several Texas cities.

Among the factors taken into consideration are the percentage of homes with negative equity, the average number of days on the market, the vacancy rate, the home price as a percentage of income and the unemployment rate.

In total, 300 cities—large (more than 300,000 people), midsize (150,000 to 300,000) and small cities (fewer than 150,000) were considered.

Take a look at the findings in the gallery above, ranked from 1 to 10 and followed by other Texas cities on the list.
